Here's how you can use self-reflection to overcome failure and move forward.

So, First Fact - It didn't work, but are you overamplifying the failure? Second Fact- by creating a failure you showed you are willing to try, so let's focus on that...and be honest "What was it about you that created this failure?" "What is it about you that can now use this new knowledge to try again?" When we focus on what we can do, what we did, and how we can change, we raise our emotional intelligence and resilience which means we see a more realistic view of the world and our place in it, failures and all 💛

Ante un error, lo primero que hay que hacer es reconocerlo. No se trata de buscar culpables ni responsables sino ser conscientes del problema que tenemos frente a nosotros para poder trabajarlo. Lo peor son esas actitudes que ante cualquier incidencia lanzan la bola al otro campo para que alguien se haga cargo de su resolución. Vivimos en un momento en el pensamiento crítico cada vez es más necesario y eso sólo lo conseguiremos si reconocemos y aceptamos los problemas cuando aparecen

Concordo que aceitar os fatos e olhar com inteligência e sabedoria para a realidade indesejada. Coloca você no aqui e agora! O único plano onde a ação pode ser executada!

Embracing reality is the cornerstone of overcoming failure through self-reflection. Start by acknowledging the failure without sugarcoating it. This honest acceptance allows you to objectively assess the situation and understand your role in it. By facing the facts head-on, you gain clarity on the factors that led to the undesired outcome. This transparency is crucial for learning from mistakes and ensuring you don't repeat them, laying a solid foundation for future success.

I find that the following can help people come to terms with reality and find a constructive way to move forward. Reflect: Encourage self-reflection to identify what they can control and what they cannot. Reframe: Assist people in seeing their situation from a different perspective, focusing on potential opportunities rather than limitations. Set Goals: Work with people to set realistic, achievable goals based on their current circumstances. Practice Mindfulness: Teach mindfulness techniques to help them stay grounded and manage stress related to the situation. Celebrate Progress: Encourage celebrating small victories and progress to build a positive outlook.

After embracing reality, delve into analyzing the outcomes of your failure. Examine the results from various perspectives, considering all aspects of the situation. What were the immediate consequences? How did it impact your business or personal goals? By identifying patterns or behaviors that contributed to the failure, you can determine what adjustments are necessary to enhance your chances of future success. This thorough analysis is crucial for making informed, strategic improvements moving forward.

Es crucial observar los propios comportamientos. Einstein decía que no se puede pretender lograr resultados distintos haciendo siempre lo mismo. Los comportamientos a su ves son resultado de emociones las cuales, a su vez, son resultado de nuestro sistema de creencias.

Die Alternative zur Analyse ist Bewusstsein. Im Bewusstsein kann ich direkt vom Ist-Zustand zum Ergebnis. Ich bin mir meines Glücks bewusst und werde glücklich, sofort. Der sog. Quantensprung der Beratung im Bewusstsein/Quantenfeld.

Failure is inevitable for anyone driven enough to pursue lofty goals. What keeps the high-achievers we admire going is to reflect on failures to learn from it. The highest performers don't internalize failure. They ask themselves questions like: - what can I learn from this? - what can or should I do differently next time? - where is there an opportunity here? Self-reflection, and choosing your focus wisely, are essential to leverage adversity into improvement and eventual success, rather than letting an initial failure stop you.

Matured decision-making requires us to move beyond what is known to us. Most struggle here. We don’t understand the deeper dynamics of our behaviour. Mistakes are great teachers, they are little earthquakes to disrupt status quo. They invite us to dig deeper, to get all the details required to review our strategy. You won’t find the answer on the surface. Be curious about the process underneath it all. Can you truly face yourself and the many layers of your decision making journey? Often past experiences inform how we show up today! The moment we treat challenge as opportunity and are willing to take a fresh look at our growth we add to our self observation and self regulation ability. Become emotionally literate

In Change-Prozessen ist es entscheidend, frühere Entscheidungen zu analysieren: Warum wurde eine bestimmte Route gewählt? Standen genug Informationen zur Verfügung? Häufig ist die Reflexion der Schlüssel zur Verbesserung zukünftiger Entscheidungen. Es ist wichtig, alle Optionen zu erwägen und nicht nur die offensichtlichen. Eine solide Risikobewertung beinhaltet das Abwägen von potenziellen Auswirkungen und das systematische Sammeln von Daten, um informierte, strategische Entscheidungen zu treffen. Die Entwicklung dieser Fähigkeiten ermöglicht eine präzisere und effektivere Steuerung von Veränderungsprozessen.

Las decisiones, por muy racionales que parezcan, al final son siempre emocionales. La razón actúa como controlador de la emoción, pero no la anula totalmente. Las personas más racionales suelen ser quienes más miedo (una emoción) le tienen a sus emociones. Es clave observa qué estábamos sintiendo cuando tomamos aquella decisión que ahora llamamos “equivocada”.

Dieser oft vernachlässigte Punkt ist sehr wichtig: Im Business verdrängen wir oft Emotionen und fokussieren uns schnell auf Lösungen, weil wir ja "müssen". Doch nach einem Misserfolg sollten wir uns Zeit nehmen (meistens benötigen wir nur wenig bewusste Zeit dafür), um Wut, Trauer, Enttäuschung usw. zu verarbeiten. So können wir neutral nach neuen Ansätzen suchen. Wenn wir sofort weitermachen, handeln wir oft aus ungefilterten Emotionen heraus, was bei wiederholten Misserfolgen zu noch emotionaleren Reaktionen führt.

Your emotions , especially the reactive ones, are like little gateways, revealing where your inner work lies! Emotional awareness, becoming emotionally literate makes ALL the difference 🔥 Take a moment to meet what is activated within you in the challenge, identify how you are feeling. Give space for it. Breathing calmly is helpful. Very often a present situation reminds us of past ones. Very often we carry unresolved stuff … anything that comes to the surface requires your attention. When addressing your emotions work both vertically and horizontally. Become your own best friend in tending to your wellbeing.

Often we see failure as a negative thing and so negative emotions are attached to this. If we try to put aside our negative emotions around failing there is a lot of positives to be found. You can understand what went wrong and how to improve this so it doesn’t happen again. When you feel negative about failure try to write out each negative emotion you are feeling, e.g. disappointed, self-doubt, embarrassment. Then next this try to rationalise these feelings and write out how you move forward. E.g. Disappointment ➡️ Grateful to be able to learn from mistakes and improve.

La observación de las emociones, tanto de las experimentadas después del “fracaso” como las de antes de este, nos facilitará conocernos mejor. Al final, desde un punto de vista holístico, el auto conocimiento es el único objetivo de cualquier experiencia. Ser conscientes de esto facilitará que lo que debamos reconocer en nosotros sea reconocido y de ahí que resulte natural un cambio emocional, lo que llevará a nuevos comportamientos y resultados. Si no hacemos ese proceso muy probablemente repetiremos la disfunción y nos veremos nuevamente en una situación similar.

Un buen plan que ataque la causa raíz del problema es clave para su resolución. Si no ataca la causa raíz, estaremos trabajando para nada. El plan tiene que ser sencillo, abordable en tiempo y forma y con un seguimiento que permita identificar desviaciones y atacarlas cuando surjan para evitar retrasos innecesarios.

La mente es útil para controlar y planear, esa es su función. Cuando ambos hemisferios operan juntos entonces podemos concretar (izquierdo) nuestra creación (derecho) y seremos innovadores. De resto, la mente suele ser más bien un estorbo para nuestra paz con su constante parloteo, interpretación e imaginación de escenarios futuros negros. Conviene recordar que en un proceso de planificación nosotros debemos usar nuestra mente y no que ella nos use a nosotros. “Gobierna a tu mente o ella te gobernará a ti” decía Horacio.

Ergänzend zur Ursachenforschung kommt die Ursachenforschung in der eigenen Perspektive hinzu. Eine Strategie kann nur so gut sein wie der Stratege. Bewusstsein und der Teamgedanke zur Stärkung und Potenzierung der Perspektiven und damit zur Reduzierung blinder Flecken lässt sich idealerweise optimal durch externe Perspektiven - also externe Berater - generieren. Dabei sollten diese möglichst fachfremd sein, um auch die „dummen“ Fragen stellen zu können, für die sich jeder systeminterne Partner schämen würde, egal ob er die Antwort kennt oder nicht - das Bewusstsein um die Relevanz des Wissenmüssens ist vorhanden.

In my experience, overcoming business setbacks is all about perspective. I've learned to view 'failures' as valuable lessons that inform my future strategies. It's amazing how much insight you can gain from a project that didn't go as planned. I've also found it crucial to celebrate the small victories along the way. Maybe a campaign didn't hit all its targets, but it resonated well with a key demographic. These little wins remind me that progress isn't always linear. I can't stress enough the importance of a supportive network. Having mentors and peers who encourage taking calculated risks has been a game-changer. These mental shifts have changed how I navigate my business, making me more resilient and optimistic in the face of adversity.

Self reflection is just the first step in moving forward. Once you have identified the gaps and the challenges, you are now aware and would be able to navigate and avoid the path you decided to take on. It’s a continuous process to redefine and reassess said gaps, fine tune and make the necessary adjustments accordingly. Once we are authentic enough to accept and forgive our mistakes, we can then grow and move forward without the emotional baggage.

First, unconditionally accept the situation, that what happened happened. Second, unconditionally accept yourself for having failed. That is, “failing does not make me a Failure; it just makes me a fallible imperfect human being.” Third, unconditionally accept those - if any external persons - who caused you to fail. Say you lost to office politics. The best thing to think is “office politician who caused all this” - if that is indeed what happened - “has done something I dislike and is unprofessional, but that doesn’t make him an brutal asshole. It does make him fallible human. And as I stepped on others’ toes at times, I shouldn’t be so harsh at this ‘politician.’” These three interventions will keep your emotional reactions healthy…

How often to use self-reflection? Could be every day. Before we go to bed, to spend five minutes to think one successful thing, and one failure. From both we can get some learning.

Create a "failure resume" where you list your failures instead of achievements. Reflect on what each failure taught you and how it contributed to your growth. This helps reframe your mindset to view failures as opportunities for learning and growth.
